I just wish I would've picked it up sooner

Nice set ups! Is that VF-4 panel lined, or is it the lighting? Either way it looks great.

Thank you to bbrain for sending this over. Working on an adapter. Should have something later today.

Can anyone accurately measure the diameter of the 1/55 gunpod in decimal millimeters? I would like to integrate a clip for the gunpod into the stand adapter. Thanks.

How are you gonna mount it with the grip in the way?

Nice! probably going to have the gunpod on its side, as it doesn't seem like the arms want to leave a gap for the gunpod.

Or would a clip that attaches to the wrist holes be better? That way the gunpod could sit back where wmkjr has it shown. Is that too far back?

I like the gunpod fins in the vertical. It's too far back but it looks like that's the only place it can go.

Yes, that might have to be a compromise. Could you give me L x W x H of the straight section on the gunpod grip? I am going to move onto gerwalk. Fighter adapter is solid.

Makes me want to retrieve my Jetfire from my Dad's garage! Unfortunately the super parts are toast (my old dog saw to that)

I can see some Yetistand in my future. Just ordered some acrylic display stands to elevate some of my flightpose but it's not

a particularly elegant solution. Those formation -19's above are spectacular as is derex's panel lined 4G.

Here are the measurements I got. As for the width, it was tricky as there is a slightly thicker front. It measured 4.75 on the front and 4.35 on the back.

Payinstakingly panel lined and I trimmed all the stickers. It looks like a model...but it's a "toy"!

Looks spectacular! All it needs now are the Skull squadron stickers on the vertical stabilizers! :)

Is there any demand for having the 1/55's on a stand in battroid mode? The attachment point would be right about where the nosecone is.

Now with gunpod cage.

Clip for gunpod is printing now. Neither of these will be compatible with the arm parts. The arm parts have some pretty frail looking clips, and I did not want to incorporate anything that attempts to interface with them. Safely cradling them with an adapter that goes around the arms puts the pivot too far back, in my opinion. I think leaving the arm armors off is a fair compromise.

I apologize if this has been covered already, but has anyone tried fitting a YetiStand with multiple arms within a Detolf shelf? What's the most anyone has done?

I have been able to get 3 arm to fit with 1/60 VF-1, with VF-25's I can get 2 arm to fit.
